I’ve been exploring the fediverse and subbing and posting all over the damn place. Realizing lemmy can federate with kbin blew my mind. Not to mention the possibility of turning my old laptop into a personal server to host my own instance. Is this what it felt like to discover how the internet worked in the 90s?

    Ah yeah–that is confusing here. I think there’s a lot of UI improvements that are sure to come. For some reason there are two searches–a post search and a magazine search. The post search is the one that’s visible on the top bar, and the magazine search is in the magazines tab (that lists all magazines), and in my experience is pretty good. If I search “tech” I get results from all sorts of instances.

    All in all there’s a lot of room for improvement, but it’s such a young piece of software that I’m pretty confident it (and lemmy) will improve pretty rapidly in the coming months/years
